摘要:
A control device of a legged mobile robot, wherein a state amount error (for example, an error of a vertical position of a body 3), which is a difference between an actual state amount and a state amount of a desired gait related to a translational motion in a predetermined direction (for example, a translational motion in a vertical direction) of a legged mobile robot 1, is determined, and then a desired motion of the desired gait is determined such that the state amount error approaches zero. The desired motion is determined using a dynamic model by additionally inputting a virtual external force determined on the basis of the state amount error to the dynamic model for generating desired gaits. At the same time, a desired floor reaction force of the robot 1 is corrected on the basis of a state amount error of zero, and compliance control is carried out to make the motion and the floor reaction force of the robot 1 follow the desired motion and the desired floor reaction force of the desired gait.

In a legged walking robot (1) having a body (3) and two articulated legs (2) each connected to the body through a hip joint (10, 12) and having a knee joint (16) and an ankle joint (18, 20), connected by a shank link (26), a knee pad (90) is mounted on the shank link as a landing/shock absorbing means at a position (Xpad1) adjacent to the knee joint which is brought into contact with the floor when coming into knee-first contact with the floor such that the knee joint is to be positioned at a location forward of the center of gravity (XG1) of the robot in a direction of robot advance, while absorbing impact occurring from the contact with the floor. With this, the robot can be easily stood up from an attitude with its knee joint regions in contact with the floor. Moreover, when coming into knee-first contact with the floor, it can absorb the impact of the contact to protect the knee joint regions and the floor from damage.
摘要:
A gait generation system of a biped mobile robot (1) having a body (24) and two articulated legs (2) each having a foot at its distal end connected by an ankle joint (10,12,14R,L). The system has two or three models approximating a deviation of displacement (position) and velocity of the body and the ZMP (zero moment point) indicative of the floor reaction force acting on the robot. In the system, two gaits for a robot walking step are generated. If there is a discontinuity of the body position or velocity or the ZMP in the gait boundary, the models are manipulated to cancel the discontinuity. The output of the models are calculated from the input, and based on the input and output, the gaits are corrected. The models are designed to stop at every two walking steps so as to avoid calculation errors from being accumulated.

Based on a detected or estimated value of an actual posture of a predetermined part, such as a body 3, of a robot 1 and a deviation the actual posture from a posture of a desired gait, a posture rotational deviation's variation is determined as the temporal variation of the deviation, and the position of the robot 1 (for example, the position where the robot comes into contact with a floor) is estimated on the assumption that the robot 1 rotates about a rotation center by the rotational deviation's variation. In addition, in accordance with the difference between the estimated position and the estimated position of the robot 1 determined by an inertial navigation method using an accelerometer or the like, the estimated position of the robot 1 determined by the inertial navigation method is corrected, thereby improving the precision of the estimated position.
